I love all my V-Picks. I collect and use them all. My fav at the moment is the “Big Fatty”. It’s close to a Carlos pick but with a little more point to it. It’s the three point design I like because of its size and rotate-able edges. The soft leather key chain ensures I have Big Fatty on me at all times.

I moved up to a 2mm gator grip and a self in. Excellent results. I seriously want to try the v-pick make. The 3mm stubby are giving me great results so far. I play many flavors of rock guitar.

I love V-Picks. I've tried quite a few different models and so far my favorites are the Screamer and the Dimension. I always have those 2 picks with me along with a Gravity Classic 3mm. The thicker picks allow me to use a more relaxed grip.
@GlennMichaelThompson7 жыл бұрын
I've been using V-Picks for years now. What a great selection Vinni sent you... plus the leather pouch and customized picks w/ your logo. Very cool! BTW my favourite V-Pick is the Dimension Jr., and the Small Pointed or Diamond comes in as a great backup.

I like the euro II, its one of my favourites in terms of feel. But they make extra pick noise, like a harmonic "plink" as you hit the string, and the price is quite high. Vinnie actually sent me a pack of free picks a few years back after leaving a comment on one of his videos. Really cool guy, and the picks are definitely worth trying.

I tried em all & Dunlop Nylon is the Best .88 over all i you know how to use them. I've been using my fingers like jeff beck & others but what I normaly play it's good to play w/out a pick so WHEN you drop one & can't access one you can make it thru a song & not choke on a song in the middle. Just my 2 cents I'd like to try one if the tip is like an propeller edge. I've seen one I got @ a Vinnie Vincent show back in the day Pink Uggg. But Fast!

Nightpick I've used Milk Jugs as picks cut out that is in the shape I wanted , even credit cards make a good pick cut em out with the raised letters & #'s help for a grip. Yes I have used the Lil Stuby & the Gator Grip…My favorites are from Dunlop , The Nylon don't get grooves worn in the edges as quick as plastic picks IF you do pick slides. What yer string Co.? I'm a Dean Markley man

Nightpick Man I'd like to try those Gtr Research Bass Strings for $2 !!!! Wow I need to resting a Bass now & I dread paying for those 4 strings Ouch! Local Shop's are High around here I'm just grateful no more Black Diamond Strings cause that was all you could find local for years that was back in the day. Even in Bigger stores had more to chose from so I tried Fender, Gibson strings & they were Bad but the Fender Bullets were Ok then I tried Dean Markley & used em for years then they come out w/frozen strings heated strings… hard to find the Regular Brand , awhile back I got a dead on pure nickel Jimi Hendrix Dean Markley's for like a $1 a set I bought box of em. I'd still like someone to spill the beans on the String Biz. I say that because you see Ernie Ball players that are on the Adverts saying they played them for 20 30 yrs…but some Artist I know played or endorsed Dean Markley in the 80's & 90's How does that work? Don't they know people remember these things? lol

V-Picks have been around since the 1970's. I doubt Vinni's ever even thought about copying another manufacturer's pick(s). You just have to try one of his 3mm or thicker picks to see how much they can add to one's playing.
